Ron Howard, director of the upcoming Solo: A Star Wars Story, took some time away from post-production on the spinoff to check out the latest installment in the series, Star Wars: The Last Jedi. He praised Rian Johnson and said his screening was full of cheers and applause.

Production on Solo wrapped back in October, but news surrounding the project has been interesting since. Howard nearly doubled the project’s original budget for reshoots – apparently, he reshot 80 percent of the film. Along with that, a rumor surfaced back in September that stated Darth Vader will be appearing in the movie, but no other details on that have been released.
